WORTH IT$8,500
After loosing the weight from my 2 pregnancies, it was depressing to look in the mirror and see what was left of my abdomen. Not only was the skin stretched, saggy/loose, but I had significant diastasis recti (separation of abd muscle). I knew that I was never going to be "OK" with this new body. Everyday it was an issue, trying to dress nice and covering up my mid section was torturous. We were confident that our family was complete and my loving husband was more than supportive on this decision (really could not have gone thru this without his support). So I asked around and chose a reputable surgeon in Folsom CA, which is over an hour away from us. It was worth the commute for me to have a great result from a skilled surgeon. The recovery was rough, but as my swelling goes down, I see what my end result will look like and I am extremely pleased and excited. I never thought I would be in a bikini, but know I am thinking it is totally possible and this is more than I could ask for.
